Using classic Outlook for Windows in business environments
Favorites/Inbox would be a solution if it did not take at least 5 seconds to appear and if it was selected when the program opens. Currently it jumps to the next Inbox under Favorites.

I have multiple inboxes flowing into my Outlook clients on MacOS, iOS, formerly Windows 10, but now can't find that functionality for a joint inbox in my Windows 11 version. Please help!

I agree, this is rubbish. I have only changed to Outlook because of the threats to close the old trustworthy Mail. My resistance to Outlook is confirmed.
Not having a unified Inbox wastes my time. GET IT FIXED
"IMAP & Exchange accounts will always have their own <Inbox> folders and that cannot be changed."
If Outlook for Android and IOS, and Windows Mail can do it, why can't Outlook for Windows be made to do it?
Almost ALL other Windows email handling programs have unified inboxes. Even Microsoft Mail has a unified inbox. Your answer is not valid. Other examples: Thunderbird, eM Client, Time and Chaos Intellect. Want more?
Thanks, John for the info.
For the moment, I'm trying a workaround. I have made the inboxes only for each separate email account a favorite so they get displayed at the top. I have to expand an email account to look at any other folders.
Not perfect, but workable so far. Only glitch is it keeps marking read emails as unread in one of my Gmail accounts.
I'm going to check out Mailbird though. Cheers.
